Cher Vintage Moroccan Large Area Rug | 7' x 14’4”
Step into the world of Taznakht weaving with this stunning vintage rug. Created in the Aït Khouzama sub‑tribe of southern Morocco, where artisans center their designs around large medallions , the piece showcases a series of eight‑pointed star motifs on a saturated pink ground. Women in the Taznakht area have long hand‑knotted rugs using local wool and plant‑based dyes; common hues include rich reds, pinks and blacks . Over the 30–40 years since this rug was woven, its colors have mellowed to a warm pink with contrasting dark accents, lending the pattern depth and dimension.
Measuring 7 feet by 14 feet 4 inches, this rug makes a statement in large living rooms, dining rooms or loft spaces. The high‑quality wool pile is soft underfoot and has been professionally cleaned, so it’s ready to grace your home. Because the piece was originally woven for domestic use rather than commercial sale, you may notice slight irregularities in the weave or pattern—small imperfections that testify to its handmade origin and vintage character. Style it with neutral furnishings to let the star motifs take center stage, or layer it with other textiles for a maximalist look. We recommend using a rug pad to prevent slipping and protect the fibers. By welcoming this rug into your home, you’re preserving a unique piece of Moroccan heritage.
